Jolly Donuts in Pacoima, CA, is part of the Spudnuts legacy, a franchise known for its unique potato-based doughnuts that originated in 1940 by brothers Alan and Bob Pelton in Salt Lake City, Utah. The Peltons aimed to create a lighter, less greasy doughnut, ultimately leading to the invention of the Spudnut, which became popular across the United States with over 200 stores by 1948.

Although the original Pelton Spudnut Corporation no longer exists, 37 Spudnut shops continue to operate, each adapting the original recipe due to the unavailability of the original dry Spudnut mix. The Spudnuts Museum, which celebrated this iconic American confection, aimed to educate the public about its historical significance and the culinary innovation behind it.

I was in the area and dropped by to get a cup of mocha. Price is fair and not as pricey as a coffee shop. They have a variety of donuts and smoothies here.
